Main Methods:

  • Utilized a minimum cost formulation with pseudo-randomly generated objectives for path planning and exploration.
  • Integrated multi-path planning and evaluation for comprehensive map coverage within defined boundaries.
  • Evaluated the approach on a robotic platform equipped with a lightweight 3D LiDAR sensor.

Main Results:

  • Demonstrated successful autonomous exploration and environmental modeling in complex indoor and outdoor scenes.
  • Compared the robustness of different odometry types and analyzed the impact of motion planning parameters.
  • Assessed the consistency and efficiency of exploring unknown areas.

Conclusions:

  • The proposed method effectively achieves autonomous exploration and environmental modeling in diverse, complex environments.
  • Identified key factors contributing to exploration failures.
  • Outlined future research directions for enhancing digital twinning and autonomous systems.
